Why are my iMessages coming back as "not delivered" on ALL devices?

For the past 2 days, my iMessages have been showing the message "not delivered" on ALL of my Mac devices. iPad, iPhone and my Macbook pro. I have the new Mountain Lion software. This does not only happen when I have wi-fi on, but also when I was using 3g today on my iPhone. I asked my friends if they could see there was something wrong with my imessages, and yes, they said that they would receive the same message when they tried to iMessage me ONLY.
The thing is, I know that my iMessages are going through.
Anybody have any ideas? I searched around for similar issues, but none seemed to match this kind of problem. Any help is definitely appreciated.
Thanks a lot!

Found a fix on another thread that seemed to work.
Go into Messages preferences and uncheck "enable this account."  Wait a few seconds, then recheck it.
Also disabled and re-enabled imessages on my 4S just for good measure.
Hope this helps

  • Why are my emails coming back to my inbox after I delete them?

    After I delete emails off of my phone they come back into the inbox the next time I go to my email. Does anyone know what I can do to keep them off my phone once deleted?

    Your email account must be a POP type, and you have it set NOT to delete the email from the server when deleting from your inbox.  The email remains on your server and gets sent to your inbox again when it's remove from there.  POP accounts are not designed to send to more than one email client.

  • Why are my iMessages coming up as my email address?

    So starting about 2-3 months ago, I have been sending iMessages to people from my phone whom I have sent them before and know I am an existing contact in their phone.  Suddenly I started to  get the same reply from most of them:  "Who is this?"  Of course, I identified myself and people responed "Why is it coming up as a strange email address?"  I would ask if it was coming up with my apple ID, which is was.
    So why is this happening?  I did upgrade from a iPhone 4 to a iPhone 5, but I know that wasn't the cause, because one of them was a coworker who started long after I got my 5.  I didn't do anything different that I know of, and it has happened before and after iOS 7.X.  It has becoming very annoying, especially when it is to my boss, whom I usually don't text, and he hasn't added my personal email address to his contacts.
    I do have an iPad Mini; however, I have messaging disabled on it.
    Does anyone know what could be causing this?
    Thanks.

  • Why are contacts created on my Mac not syncing to other devices?

    I have created contacts in address book on my Macbook Pro and they do not show up on my iPhone or iPad.  I have iCloud (contacts) turned on on all three.  OSX ver. 10.7.5

    You're welcome.  I'm not sure how this happens, but it does from time to time.  When you first enable contacts syncing with iCloud on a Mac, it's supposed to upload your On My Mac contacts to iCloud and delete the On My Mac account, but in some cases it doesn't work properly and you're left with some "stranded" contacts and the potential to add new contacts to an account that doesn't sync with iCloud.

  • I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users.  Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS

    I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users.  Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS.  When I look in the library under the get info screen it says they are in the folder itunes music, under the c: drive but when I actually go to that folder to look for them they are not there....HELP!

    Hello RumDog,
    I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
    Where are my iTunes files located?

    Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
    Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
    Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
    Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
    Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
    You can then:
    Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
    Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
    Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
    If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
    Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."
    From: Where are my iTunes files located?

  • HT1688 why are my imessages now turning into text messages all the time?

    Why are my iMessages now turning into text messages all the time?

    There are a number of reasons why they may be sent as regular sms and not iMessages. If either party is in an area with poor reception and the the data network is struggling, the regular sms messages will be sent to the recipient. iMessage can be switched off at a users convienince, your recipients may have iMessage turned off when you've sent those messages.
    There are instances where the iMessage server is not responding due to techinical issues (although, few and far between)

  • Why are some apps that I bought not on my purchased items on my itunes account?

    Why are some apps that I bought not on my purchased items on my itunes account?  I bought 4 apps, then had to reset my iPad, later when trying to download them back onto the iPad, they were not listed under by Purchased apps in my account in iTunes.  Thanks for any help!

    Plug in your iPhone to iTunes on your Computer, let it sync the games onto the Computer, then plug in your iPad and go to Apps in iTunes and select the apps then apply and it will download them to the iPad :)
    If you have trouble when in Apps in iTunes on your Computer, it will say iPhone and iPod touch Apps. Hope this helps!!

  • TS3991 why are 2 of my Numbers documents not loading from icloud They appear in faded grey and I can't open them ? How do I recover them ?

    why are 2 of my Numbers documents not loading from icloud They appear in faded grey and I can't open them ? How do I recover them ?

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • Why are iCal alarms coming up with a black rectangle?

    Why are iCal alarms coming up with a black rectangle? I'm running 10.3.9 and iCal v. 1.5.2. This started after I did software updates this week.
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I solved it in my case by going to System Preferences>Internet & Network>QuickTime>Advanced, then clicking the checkbox to Enable Flash. I also had to quit and restart iCal.
    I think the Quicktime715 update that recently came out had something to do with it.
    It seems that the black box is supposed to be a movie of a vibrating alarm clock, and apparently that movie uses Flash.
    I hope this fix works for you too.

  • Why are some of my group contacts not transferring from my computer

    Why are some of my group contacts not transferring from my computer

    Hey, I see I'm having the same problem lately.  I keep entering new contacts to my Apple desktop, and ever since adopting Lion the new contacts refuse to transfer to my mobile devices!  (no matter what I try!)...so much for having my contacts always updated with me!

  • Why are my emails not deleting from all devices when deleted from one?  I have iCloud set up and turned on. I have ipad2, iphone5 and a Mac. What am I doing wrong?  Thank you

    Why are my emails not deleting from all devices when deleted from one?  I have iCloud mail set up and turned on. I have ipad2, iPhone 5 and a Mac desktop. What am I doing wrong?  Thank you.

    It depends on the type of email account you are using, not on iCloud.  If you are using an IMAP or exchange account, when you delete from one device, it is deleted from all devices.  If you are using a POP (POP3) account, it won't.  (iCloud email, Gmail and Yahoo are all IMAP accounts.)

    Have you done a sampling of all users, or only those users that don't like it? While I don't mind it, I don't think I even noticed it at first until someone pointed it out.
    I note that if you get Info on an item the icon is still colour so this is some OS level (we know best) overaly that's turning everything bland and boring, it would be nice if Apple let the user actually chose this rather than force it upon them ... just like Microsoft I'm sad to say.
    Microsoft? The '90s are over. But regardless of what decade you are living in, Apple has never been too big on end-user customization of the operating system. Apple has always discouraged the use of "themes" whereas Microsoft will allow people to do pretty much whatever they want.
    The file system icons are still the same as they have always been. The new monochrome icons are clearly a design trend more than any change to the underlying operating system. If you turn off the expanded view in any file save dialog (other than in Safari), you can still see the old, glorious, multicoloured icons. If you really wanted to, I'm sure you could change the system-level images and make Finder and Mail look just like they used to.
